Thoughts on renting out White House rooms

Thanks to M.J. Ornelas (“Turning White House into a real moneymaker,” May 6). It could be the trade-off that would work. With the current resident living there (not), the idea is a brilliant plan to offset the thousands/millions we taxpayers get to pay for the current president to take exorbitant weekly vacations.

Who knew being president would be so difficult? Living and working in the White House must stink. And not golfing? Yikes.

Thank goodness our president has properties to escape to and relax from all the duties we thought he was elected to show concern for. He was going to work so hard. Hate it when golf gets in the way. So who wants to run around the White House first? A rich Republican? Russian? Average Joe?
